Sometimes I look at my Internet search history on my phone and I have to smile… or cringe.
Having an inquisitive brain myself and a very curious four-year old, I love being able to look things up in a moments notice in order to satisfy an urge to know, settle an argument or further investigate simply for the sake of knowledge. Kids ask a lot of questions and it’s nice to be able to deliver a response and often with photos.
The strangest request Lucas has had recently is to show him a picture of Dr. Laura. I know, I know, probably not the best car ride listening entertainment, huh? Well, maybe some of her wisdom will sink in?
Here’s what else I have researched lately:
In my defense (from top to bottom):
I highly suggest looking up Tom Cruise and his winning smile… there is something amiss. He has a tooth in the center of his face. It’s totally creepy.
I signed up for an upcoming 5K.
The Tijuana Dogs are one of my favorite local bands and I was checking out their tour dates.
My BFF is moving to Corsica and although she doesn’t know it yet, I’m planning a trip. Worth researching for the gorgeous photos alone!
I gave Charlie Pasta his first people food… popcorn and then freaked about about whether it could hurt him. He loved it and it’s okay for dogs.
I’m anxious to read Life After Life by Kate Atkinson.
Lucas wanted to know all about barnacles. Random, right?
I am bound and determined to make gazpacho before the summer is over.
What have you looked up lately?

Tonya!! This is so hilarious and I think it should me a monthly meme!!
And now my notes…
– Tom Cruise and his freaky off center teeth has always bothered me. It’s all I see when I watch his movies.
– Thank you for your support in curing breast cancer!
– Dave Murdy from Tijuana Dogs was one of my music theory teachers at OCC when I went there a billion years ago.
So fun. Do this again!!

Um, yes. Why isn’t this a meme yet? I’m too ashamed to post mine here. But you’ve kinda inspired me.
Jackie says
I agree with the others…. perfect for a meme!
Now I have to go look at what I’ve searched for.
Twingle Mommy says
Yeah, there are many cookie recipes on my search right now. I finally found one that I made and it was delicious! Before the cookies were searches for restaurants. I think there is a very hungry girl who took over my phone.

You coming to see me in Corsica is something I totally look forward to! We’re all so sad to leave New Caledonia that having something positive to look forward to in coming months/years, is good for the heart and soul. I have to check the search history on my phone… Another Susan Gomen? You’re fantastic! Love ya, Friend! XOXO
Leigh Ann says
This is so funny because have almost the exact same post in draft, only some of my searches are a little, um, strange.
Greta says
He DOES have a tooth in the middle of his face!!! I cracked up when I read that. Also, I wish my dogs would clean up the spilled popcorn around here. Maybe if it was beef-flavored…
Katie says
This could TOTALLY be a meme! I have never even looked at my history, but I bet it is ridiculous since I do a lot of my own research for my freelance stuff. Plus also I always think I’m dying. Google that, yo.
Alison says
Hello, monthly meme, Tonya!
I laughed at popcorn for dogs. 🙂
Stevie says
I’m afraid to look at mine! I’m cracking up that your dog loved popcorn!
